하여리 (Hayeori)

Hayeori (하여리) stands as one of the earliest Demon Hunters, remembered not only for her blade but for her voice that carried the harmony of the cosmos. Born beneath an eclipse where sun and moon aligned, her first cry rang with a resonance so pure that the elders believed she was bound to the Honmoon, the sacred barrier that separates the mortal world from the shadow realm. Where others wielded steel alone, Hayeori wielded sound itself, her voice able to steady storms, soothe restless spirits, and unravel the fury of demons. Alongside Sorinae, bringer of sound, and Eunahwa, silver blossom of grace, she formed the first of the Hunter trios. Sorinae gave power to beginnings, Eunahwa embodied beauty through sorrow, but Hayeori bore the heaviest role — Balance. Her song wove day into night, life into death, stitching the Honmoon whenever it threatened to fracture. Legends tell of her white hair flowing like moonlight, her jade-lit sword humming in rhythm with her melodies, and the glowing sigils upon her skin that shone brightest when the barrier was weakest. Despite her radiance, Hayeori was no conqueror. She believed demons were not born evil, but broken beings, their cries twisted by grief. To her, the Honmoon was not merely a wall but a song of separation and remembrance, and her voice echoed as both shield and mercy. Even now, when the barrier quivers, some swear a distant hymn rises in the wind — the eternal song of Hayeori, guardian of sun and moon.
